Using Eudora Light for E-mail

Creating a "Signature" (Text at the End)

You can create a signature, which is text that appears automatically at the end of every e-mail you send. For example, you can include your title, phone number, e-mail address, postal address, a nice saying, a brief listing of your accomplishments, the possibilities are endless.

For the PC:

  1. To create (or modify) a signature, choose Tools > Signatures > Standard.
  2. In the window that opens, type your signature.
  3. If you want to follow typical convention, type two hyphens (--) and then press Enter. Then type the rest of the information.
  4. Choose File > Save from the menu to save your signature.
  5. To create an alternate signature, choose Tools > Signatures > Alternate. Create your signature and save it.
  6. To use your signature, create a new message. Choose either Standard or Alternate from the drop-down list just above your message. (By default, this is set to Standard.) Note that your signature is not displayed in the Eudora message window, but is added to the end of the message when it is sent.

For the Mac:

  1. To creat (or modify) a signature, choose Window > Signatures.
  2. Click Standard, then click Edit.
  3. If you want to follow typical convention, type two hyphens (--) and then press Enter . Then type the rest of the information.
  4. Choose File > Save from the menu to save your signature.
  5. To create an alternate signature, choose Window > Signatures. Then click Alternate and Edit. Create your signature and save it.
  6. To use your signature, create a new message. Choose either Standard or Alternate from the drop-down list just above your message. (By default, this is set to Standard.) Note that your signature is not displayed in the Eudora message window, but is added to the end of the message when it is sent.

Tip: A signature can be used to create a "stock" letter, in other words, you can add text for the body of an e-mail, too.
